Born Sealia, on June 23, 1990, this little California Sea Lion became the first female "Sparky" in 2002 when she first began performing shows. Since then, she has delighted countless zoo visitors with a variety of different shows including the "Wonderful World of Pinnipeds", "Sparky's Day at the Doctor", and "Sparky's Tundra Tour". Sparky VI is known for her "dance" moves as well as jumping out of the water to touch a ball. She has mastered many behaviors over the years and continues to learn new ones to show off to her adoring fans.

Come out and wish her a happy 20th birthday. Sparky shows run daily at 11:30 with additional shows on weekends at 2:00.
